good evening. this is your update from the bbc sport centre. jack laugher has his hat—trick of commonwealth games titles on the one—metre springboard. the yorkshireman wasn't at his absolute best, but he comfortably secured gold ahead of australia's two—time world champion shixin li, with england'sjordan houlden taking bronze on his commonwealth games debut. i think that ijust came into it a little bit maybe not in the right frame of mind and felt a little bit scared, but today, ijust did my normal thing and it worked out. that's actually my lowest score, but i'm still doing really well. i like being pushed all the way, i like it. and 17—year—old andrea spendolini—sirieix then won the women's 10m platform event to continue the gold success for england. she topped the leaderboard from her second dive on her commonwealth games debut. teammate lois toulson took silver. there've been six athletics medals up for grabs this evening. zach shaw won silver in the men's

england knocked off the runs with seven wickets and 50 balls to spare. the defeat means new zealand will have to play favourites australia in the other semi. away from the commonwealth games, but staying with cricket — the second match of the hundred saw london spirit resist a brave fightback from oval invincibles. the match marked a return to form, for former england t20 and od! captain eoin morgan. he made 47 out of spirit's 171 for 6. the invincibles recovered from a poor start, but fell four runs short of their target. japan's hinako shibuno made a flying start at the women's open. she leads by one shot going into the second round at muirfield. shibuno, who won the title three years ago, made eight birdies as she shot a six—under—par round of 65. scotland's louise duncan and england'sjodi ewart shadoff are the best—placed british players. they're tied for third and fourth place respectively. dundee united are enjoying playing european football again, for the first time in ten years.

they have the advantage against dutch side az alkmaar after the first leg of their europa conference third round qualifier. a great goal from glenn middleton was the difference between the two sides at tannadice park. hull kingston rovers still have a chance of making the super league play—offs after coming from behind to beat bottom club toulouse. the scores were level at i6—all, with five minutes to go, when rovers worked it out to rowan milnes on the wing. that try was converted. that's all the sport for now. you can find more on all those stories on the bbc sport website. that's bbc.co.uk/sport. hello there. hosepipe bans are starting to come into force over the next few days. for hampshire and the isle of wight, we've got a ban coming in place for friday. then, across southeast england next week and the week after that, parts of southern wales hit by one as well. it's all because we've not seen so much in the way of rain over the course of this year.

so far, only two thirds of the amount of rain we'd normally see has fallen across parts of england. not quite as dry as 1976, but not too far behind, and there is no rain in the forecast across those very driest areas — not just for the next five days, but next week looks completely dry as well. now, on thursday, we had some fine spells of sunshine across england and wales, but for scotland and northern ireland, a few passing showers — one of these captured there in the highlands — and there'll be more showers to come overnight across scotland, northern ireland and a few for the northwest of england and wales. one or two heavy one mixed in as well, but further southwards, southern wales, the midlands, east anglia, southern england, it's dry. a comfortable night's sleep for all of you, temperatures 8—11; degrees. we get off to a fresh start to the day on friday. lots of sunshine across the whole of the country, but again, there will be a few passing showers for scotland, northern ireland, the northwest of england and wales, but for the south, it's dry again with no showers in the forecast. temperatures very similar

to those of thursday. high teens across northern areas, the warmest spots about 2a—25 across eastern areas of england. and it means, again, we've got more fine weather for the commonwealth games. the athletics, perfect conditions — 20 degrees and light winds, lots of sunshine. as we head into the weekend, there will be some thicker cloud just working into the northwest of scotland, bringing a little bit of rain here, but further southwards, again, it's the same old story of dry conditions, lots of sunshine and temperatures just starting to creep up a little bit. 18 for belfast, 23 for cardiff and 26 in london. now, looking at the weather patterns through the second half of the weekend and into next week, we get this area of high pressure becoming much more dominant. that means the winds will be later and with lots of sunshine around, we'll see those temperatures start to build day by day. so, a very warm or even hot spell of weather with temperatures across the warmest spots of england peaking back into the 30s, but getting warmer as well for scotland and northern ireland with a lot of dry weather and sunshine for next week. that's your forecast.

i made imade an i made an honest mistake and i hope that in your ruling that it doesn't end my life.

i'm karishma vaswani. the headlines. japan and the us condemn china's military exercises in the waters around taiwan and call for an immediate halt. this afternoon china fired ballistic missiles from the coast of china, across the taiwan strait, they fell into waters in the exclusion zones just hair off the north of the taiwan coast. now, the primary objective is obviously intimidation. washington says the nine year sentence given to the american basketball player brittney griner in russia is "unacceptable" and urged moscow to accept a deal for her release. a uk recession lasting until the end of next year —
